In cooperation with Boulder County, the Boulder Ranger District is proposing to broadcast burn 28 acres of National Forest System (NFS) lands. Thinning of smaller diameter trees may be done before burning to reduce mortality of larger diameter trees.
Location
The project area is generally located southwest of Lyons, CO, south/east of Colorado State Highway 7 and west of U.S. Highway 36 adjacent to Boulder County Open Space, Heil Valley Ranch.
